That is true, but 1Hz is a very very very low speed for PWM and is
not achievable with the PWM module when the PIC is running so fast.
I have a sensor driver that takes 40Hz - 150Hz PWM and had to
use the timers as the PIC (628 or 88) also had to be running fast for
other functions. 150Hz is well below the minimum frequency of the
PWM module.

I doubt it. 20ns will be the minimum time. Once the reset is in effect
you can't make it any resetier by extending the pulse
